Landscaping at Grandma's and Grandpa's House

This year for Mother's Day, my mom wanted fresh bark in front of her house instead of flowers. We were a few weeks late, but Katie was excited to take part in the present.

After we finished spreading the bark, we re-potted two plants for my mom, and the plants had to be cut back a little. Finding the cuttings was the best part of Katie's day! They provided lots of toys for her.

 This rake was pretty heavy!

Grandma helped me for a little bit. 

Then I finished by myself. 

I found the cuttings from the plants, and I realized that they made a perfect umbrella! 

I gave Grandpa an umbrella too, so we could match! 

Then I realized that the loose leaves could make a perfect hat!

I helped my mom sweep the deck, but it was hard with a leaf in one hand. 

I made myself an extra-fancy hat with three leaves.

Shelby liked her hat too! I thought she looked beautiful!
